Chad
Due to the location the parking is terrible. Would recommend large vehicles park on the road. Aside from that everything was upto a good standard.
John
Th⅚is is a gem of a little apartment hotel. The room was spotless clean, large and well-appointed. The balcony has a breathtaking view of the harbor and waterfront. The location is convenient- a short walk from the high street. All of the necessities are within easy. I had such a nice stay. Highly recommend!
Cory
Great view of the harbor from the lanai/patio. Tight parking lot navigation if you’re in a standard or larger vehicle
Andrew
Great view, handy location.
Peter
Friendly, helpful staff and a spacious room with balcony and harbour view made for a lovely stay.
karen
Very comfortable staff super attentive.
Reginald
Very clean and tidy throughout.
Parking is a bit of a problem when your allocated car park is taken by another person.

Nice view and very close to harbor. We walked to harbor and had a dinner. The parking space is a little challenge due to strap entrance. Overall is pretty good.
Deanna
The kitchen was adequate as was the laundry.
Trish and John
Very steep driveway hard for me with disability
Michael
An awesome location, easy walk into Picton to see sights, shop, eat etc.
It is a shame that the panoramic harbour view shown on Expedia for my room did not match reality, the images online had clearly been taken for the floor above. Additionally, I paid for a room with a washer/dryer yet there was no washer/dryer in the room. I was offered the use, at my cost of the laundry facilities in the open garage area.

The room was clean and cozy with good views out to the water. Only negative was the shower. Very low pressure.
Grant
Great morning view of the harbour
Jaap
Great view and close to town!
Elizabeth L.
Nice spacious rooms and very comfortable beds. Nice light in the rooms and views out to the harbor.
Forrest
Really disappointing property on all levels. Most uncomfortable bed and pillows. Run down property needs updating.
N Jane
The rooms are comfortable and well equipped (even had ice cubes in the freezer and a carafe of cold water)
Venue is close to town.
Staff lovely and in refurb mode at the moment.
Would definitely use again.

Nice room with a balcony overlooking the ocean. Very quiet and friendly staff, easy walk to town.
Jenny
Great view of the marina and harbour entrance from the balcony. We had the 2 bedroom unit which was very spacious. Bedrooms were downstairs. Slightly dated furniture and bathroom but all clean and working. Easy 5 minute walk into the main town.
I would stay again.

Willem
Clean good rooms, comfortable. Communication beforehand was non-existent. Asked about parking on the premises for trailer and had no response. Get to the property and had to struggle as parking was a nightmare to get a trailer in and up the very tight driveway.
Nola
Great everying
Lesley
Lovely Harbour view over the quieter Marina rather than the Ferries. Walkable from Railway Station/ Ferry Terminal.
Small pretty town but everything you need is available.

Lorna
Perfect place to stay the night as we were passing through the town. Comfortable beds, a couple of minutes to the town centre and a lovely view from the unit.
Victoria
Room needed to be updated. Close to harbor which was nice.
Warren
Lovely view of harbour, only a few minutes walk to restaurants and shops.
Krista

Andrew
Room was quiet,great view of the harbour from our balcony.
Timon
The view from the room was lovely.
Pieter
Good size room, decent kitchen. Good bathroom.
Suzanne
The Harbour Hotel is lovely. The room that we stayed in was two floors and two bedrooms along with the kitchen and living area. The view from the balcony onto the harbor was fantastic. It is a quiet town with a grocery store nearby and several restaurants. Everything is easy to walk to and nice after a long ferry day. Would highly recommend!
Barbara
The bed was uncomfortable, bedspread was ugly, rug was warn, room was awkwardly shaped, view was obstructed, too much light at night, no sound insulation between rooms. The laundry was nice and the receptionist was friendly and helpful. The price was too high for this room.
Judith
Great staff, lovely view, close to harbour.
Fiona
Vert large room with delightful views, close to the centre of town.
Carol
Wonderful location with a stunning view of the harbour and a lovely comfortable clean room. Lovely to have a balcony to sit out on and enjoy the views. Parking was a little tight, but I wouldn’t let that put me off staying again.
Martin
Great sized room with fab view over the water. Convenient for shops and restaurants and of course Picton ferry terminal. Recommend.
Samuel
Great place to stay in Picton. Very clean with nice staff. The room had an awesome view with a balcony, and included a small kitchenette which was a nice surprise. As others have mentioned, parking is super tight, but we didn't have any problems with it. We would definitely stay here again!
Kate
Lovely view, clean room but... blind missing from entry door, so not possible to darken room, and lumpy uncomfortable couch.
I've stayed in other rooms at this motel and not had these problems.

Lovely room.. view was amazing..
Glenn
Laundry service machines old and in an unusual location. Did not use.
Hongyan
Beautiful panorama view
Emily
The room was clean, the harbor view was incredible, and we watched a beautiful sunset over the mountains! The only thing to note, is it is on a steep hill which is a little tricky driving up to the hotel parking, so we parked on the street, which was fine.
George
Was a beautiful view from the balcony.
Amy
The location was amazing, great selection of tv channels, and staff was very friendly. There was no air conditioning, therefore it was really warm while we were in Picton in the rooms (even with the windows open). That really hampered our enjoyment of the stay.
Julia
Clean room, amazing views, difficult parking. In room we booked for 4 people with 1 bed and 1 fold out couch, there was no bedding or pillows for foldout couch. Bed lamp was broken. Pretty expensive in peak season.
M
What a dirty disgusting hotel, firstly nice and polite, dropped our bag off and out for dinner, returned an hour later, decided to make a cuppa, took the lid off the kettle and wow what a shock to see brown slimy substance clinging to the sides, no way, decided to look further, opened the microwave to the most disgusting one ever, absolutely filthy and looked like it had been like it for a very long time, opened the draws to defined 3 out of 4 had mouse droppings, (shut) nearly threw up, same mouse phase been above the shower dome and pooped everywhere, fan had grown so much mould it gardly did its job, the hairdryer worked intermittently and had no testing tag, clearly was not safe, the bed was unbelievably the worst ever and should have been in a skip 25 years ago, absolutely shocking, could not get hold of anyone dispute numerous attempts, called in the morning to have a Indian fella be in total denial who put the phone down on more than one occasion. Be warned this place is so so bad, one of the worst places in New Zealand ever had to stay in, forced to stay as last minute due to our motorhome having a problem, never ever again and would rather stay on a park bench than stay at this health risk. Beware stay at your own peril.
Michelle
Great views
Vinay
there was not hot water facility, staff advised that the gas cylinder was empty, which was not what we expected from the management.
Lynda
Lovely view and bed was great but lots of broken and shabby furnishings. Cleaning staff sitting at entrance vaping.

Sarah
Room was clean, I had to get coffee sachets and milk from the main reception fridge as they were not re-stocked. Having the convection cook top was very useful , we had a great breakfast. The one negative was that there were not enough electric sockets in the room by the beds.
Gail
Spacious and comfortable.
Peter
Nice place , nice staff just brush up on your parking skills before arriving.
Dr Deepak
The room offered was not as shown in the photos. I booked the room because the photos were good. When asked about the room as shown in photos. The owner of the hotel advised that he bought the hotel 1 month ago and he does not know why the front photos are in Expedia website. I dropped the key and left the room as it was dusty and not as expected. It is a mouldy room. It was a difficult decision to leave the room and run to find another hotel at 8 pm but it was not liveable so had to rush out. I donot know if Expedia will refund or not and also it’s difficult to communicate with Expedia but the hotel owner told that he will let Expedia know to refund me. Hopeful.
Graham
Clean rooms, great location and helpful service.
Wendy
The view was stunning and it is in a perfect location. The staff were very helpful and ensured that we had late night access as our arrival was delayed by 6 hours due to a problem with the ferry. The property had everything we needed for our short self-catering stay. We are happy to recommend this property.
Lyle

AMY
Great views and super close to everything. Very friendly staff!
Steven
Stayed in the budget studio suite and it was just fine. Parked easily on the street below, with no issues. Upholstery on sofa bed was shot, but other than that, all good
Graham
Clean room. Friendly staff. Beautiful view
Susana
Friendly Staff, clean rooms and beds were comfortable! Great location, close to everything!
David
Large room, great outlook to water and comfortable bed.
Barry
People were genuinely friendly and very honest. We had a small,issue with a double payment and they were straight onto it to sort it out for us. Really appreciated their support. Beautiful clean and tidy rooms with wonderful views over the Marina. Parking is somewhat restrictive for larger vehicles though. They do their best to give you a spot to fit your vehicle. Great stay and close to everything.
Stanley

William
Amazing place to stay in Picton. beautiful harbor view and very quiet.
Nicola
We were unit 2, the sliding door to the bathroom was very difficult to open/close as it did not slide at all on the track.
The black couch needs better upholstery/repairs. The water pressure in shower was very weak
